The intro is longer than most. Bouncy uptempo version. Excellent jamming.

Lakeland Civic Center

I like the way they play this - it isn't direct and in your face. More exploratory than most.

Man, I love these '82 Sugar Mags. Tje energy, focus and execution. They are so damn lively - excellent fast tempo serves this song well.

Cool space from start to finish, turning into a Dark Star Jam.

Jerry playing it slow and sneaky, then rises for a fist-pumping conclusion.

USAir Arena

For late '94, I wouldn't call this a diminished skills version.

One of the best early 1979 versions.
Midnight Hour
